I am sure everything will come back as great as it is supposed to as far as results from the procedure itself as well as any biopsies they take to test.
It's always interesting how things as simple as a fairly common surgery can change other things later on. I am referring to having my gallbladder taken out a couple years back. Seems that since then my stomach has produced more acid and I have had slightly more occasional reflux which leads us to today's test.
Eating well, taking good care of yourself by working out and trying to have a clear mind does not always mean the cards will fall in your favor each and every time. But I always try to remember how crappy it could be if all that was not being done and things went wonky. Much harder on your body at that point. Plus I want to be around for a very long time, so anything I can do to remain full of "piss and vinegar" attitude I am all in!
**Update; stuck at the appointment in the friggin' waiting room for 1 1/2 hours now. Wondering if I will ever get in for the actual procedure. This sure does not help my anxiety with the IV part of the day, too much time to think about it.
**Update 2; I guess something got screwed up and my appointment check-in time was changed to 1:30, procedure from 2-2:30, then released. What a fun way to spend a Wednesday I figured by now (1:15) I would be nearly done and getting ready for some lunch soon. More waiting....
**Update 3; Finally in the "pre-staging" area - 1:35 PM. Once I was done getting all of my vitals checked and getting an IV started I waited for another 10 minutes or so and the anesthesiologist came in and got some information then they pushed me down to the procedure room, pumped in the drugs and the next thing I knew I was out in recovery ready to go home.
The doctor went over the results and all is good. Little bit of acid wear and tear in there which is pretty normal but nothing out of the ordinary so that is great news.
Super excited to have it all done and behind me and don't want to have to do it again for a long time, or better yet never again.
Moms
After I get out of recovery we are still planning to go past moms today as we do every Wednesday to check on her well being and have some lunch with her. Well usually it's dinner and most times it's her eating and us talking with her but good for her none-the-less.
I just hope that I am up to it otherwise we will have to go tomorrow and it will be just me since Cicely has the day off to do her fashion mob event and continue to prepare for her upcoming fashion show at GSR on Friday night.
Count Back From 10
10, 9, 8, 7 siiixxx...... I'm out - and with that I have nothing else for today entry. Just want to put this day behind me and get on with the remainder of the workweek and into a nice weekend.
No more rain today unfortunately. Rain is calming to me and tends to get the juices flowing as far as being engaged in whatever I am doing at that time. Must be something in the air. I guess the only time I would complain is if it were super cold and raining or if I had something outside planned like flying my helicopter, BBQ or a picnic.
Happy hump day, I hope it's treating you well and that you are doing things more exciting than I happen to be.
